Mythic Art on Ebay

Hello all,
I have just begun the process of selling my prints on eBay. I don’t know much about the ins-and-outs of eBay selling, but am anxious to learn.

Last Sunday, I uploaded nine works of art to the eBay site. The prints are:

The Minotaur: Woodblock Print, Dave Alber LTD, SIG
Communication: Dave Alber, Digital Etching, LTD, SIG

The headline of this blog links to an overview of all the eBay art items.
Hope you enjoy!

Alan May

During the second month of Pacific Prints at Pacific Art League, Alan May lead a tour around the print exhibition. Alan commented on the various works, from his experience and finely tuned sense of aesthetics. Alan explored each print with quiet intensity and unpacked the variety of techniques with comfortable ease.

In his long career as a printmaker, Alan May has developed a number of new techniques in printmaking. Particularly, he engineered easy and safe non-toxic etching techniques. His style has the simple graphic quality of some of the best illustrators.

Stopping at my print the Minotaur, Alan said, “This beautiful print is a great example of a chiaroscuro print. It uses two or three blocks to get the wonderful effect of the dark shadows. One of the difficulties of the cutting of this print is all of the cross hatching. What the artist had to do was cut out all of the space between the lines, a lot of work. A lovely print!”

To the left is a version of this same print in dark brown and black inks.

This work and others will be up for sale on Ebay next week.
